I hope you have good success with it. I've. yet to come across a drop in LED kit that provides more light than HIDs.

Good thing is with Prime you can return it very easily if it's not good.

Fair point but he’ll have gone through the hassle of installing just to uninstall.
Changing the headlight bulbs on this car is a PITA lol. Unless you have a lift.

This is true hah. I was just lamenting to coworkers about that today. I don't have the nice lift anymore, but I did pick up a QuickJacks recently. Well worth it.DoN_BLaZe34 wrote: ↑Fri Mar 17, 2023 5:47 amFair point but he’ll have gone through the hassle of installing just to uninstall.

LED conversion complete. I also switched the fog lignts to yellow LEDs. It was raining last night, so I didn't get a chance to take pics, but this is what I took today. While driving last night they definitely seemed brighter than the HIDs. You can also see where my passenger side mirror got knocked by a rock
